Spiti Valley is one of the most picturesque destinations in the entire Himalayas. The word Spiti means ‘Middle Land’, the land between Tibet and India. Travelers love the remoteness & treacherous roads of Spiti. Spiti Biking Expedition is India’s most demandable expedition for every motorbike lover.
Spiti is a cold desert mountain valley and is approachable from both Shimla & Manali sides.
